Pretty ambitious. I wonder what speed you can get moving at. If you are not careful the tech and hardware that you start with will be old school to mining before finishing the project. It will be a nice thing to watch. I like the fact that you back down the CPU's, rather than try to push them the other direction, that has a good effect on your longevity. Seems you will get a good bit done before there will even be a glitch or oddity to run down.
It seems pretty dead to me... Since 17th Dec. no update from the OP... Pity..
